I leave this case behind “Quels objectifs dois-je prendre pour la photographie animalière?” as they relay to each other. It’s most photographers? question before they go on safari photographique "À quelle distance allons-nous nous approcher de l'objet ?” It’s not a thing that we can advertise or promote but the short answer is “TRÈS“. That answer is followed by “mais pas toujours“. Yes, our photo safari guides can get you very close to animals, sometimes within a few meters. But naturally, animals are not right next to the truck. Photographes animaliers professionnels ayez toujours deux caméras avec eux tout le temps. L'un est équipé d'un téléobjectif, l'autre d'un objectif relativement grand angle. De cette façon, si l'animal est loin ou juste à côté du Land Cruiser, they’re covered. This complicates the question of what lenses to take. But I stand by what I wrote in the last section. Some people may want to exchange their wide-angle lens for a mid-range lens (like something around a 24-105 zoom) and it’s hard to argue with that. A lot of lens companies offer a lens in that range and if there were no weight restrictions in Africa… I’d say take both. But there are some weight restrictions.
